Poor guy

In Amsterdam I have seen many weirdos, but this was new to me, a musical horse? When I enlarged the sign on my laptop I read "I am collecting money for an engagement ring". !

  2. Well this is certain novel but I for the life of me cannot imagine the connection. Surely he doesn't associate marriage with a "nag?!"

  3. Or maybe he's just horsing around?!

  4. I would pick the "horsing around" theme - gee, hope he gets some money. I guess he wasn't singing through that head gear, eh. Have a wonderful day - snowing again - approx 8 inches and still snowing.

  5. ha! Nice catch!
    Maybe the mask is so his fiancee doesn't recognize him? I hope he gets the ring soon.

  7. I've been seeing quite a few pictures online lately with people wearing a horse head. It must have some significance I/we are not aware of.

  8. Well, I just Googled it: The Horse Head Mask, made from soft vinyl and latex, has become a symbol for anonymity (like the Guy Fawkes mask) and humor over the internet, most commonly in Japan.

    and: The concept of wearing a horse head mask for purposes other than as a Halloween costume came about as early as June 29, 2005 in a book from the popular travel guide series known as Lonely Planet.[3]

    The book was dedicated to traveling styles that are “a little less formulaic” than normal and is called “The Lonely Planet Guide to Experimental Travel”.[4]

  9. This is bizarre. I can imagine that he would attract attention. Nice gloves on the guy too for playing his keyboard.

  10. As Amsterdam is the home of diamonds, I wonder if he's hoping to buy a diamond encrusted horseshoe.

  11. Good luck to him! I wonder how long he'll have to be at it before he collects what he'll need. I think of it was me at the keyboard, I'd be there for a VERY long time. :-)

  14. That was interesting info that Sinbad found out! I think it's kind of romantic in a weird sort of way, hope he makes enough to buy the ring.
